Give a little more info, like what kinda skiing your planning on doing (park or all mountain/trail). I think these are some ok skis if your not planning to pay any more then 200$ on skis then these are good. I would also try to demo them before you buy them.

I've been riding the 10/11 afterbangs for a few years and love them. They have changed up the '14 a lot since then and it's gotten better but lots of people complain about them delaming and chipping way too much. If your strictly park 100% and looking for a cheap ski then yeah it sounds like a good match. If you have a little more them look into the line TC

fun and surfy but heavy and slow. If you are getting 177's buy the ones newer then 2014 cause the older 177's seemed to delam a lot.

Both 2013 and 2014 are going for 200 on ebay now.

Durability is a problem I've seen a few snap I would go for a little higher quality ski atomic punx or ar7s are good or even the chronic but you can get good skis $200-300 if you look instores probably a few for $200 exactly that are a little higher quality

My step-bro snapped 2 pairs last season. Biggest jump he hit was 20 feet, best rail trick was sliding the progression tube. For not putting a beating on his skis, he broke 2 pair. Take it for what its worth
